It has come to my attention...

That when I mention having a blog, people are somewhat interested, so I have decided to add some intellectual content to this blog so I can show off my smartness and my unique sense of humor.

Currently I am really hungry. I just had like a 3 hour nap and it felt really good. The best part about having a nap is that when you make up it feels like it's a new day so you've essentially made 1 day into 2 days. How amazing. Anyway currently I am starving and my mom is too busy telling my sister her life story about marriage and kids and jobs and how everyone did it in the good old days. It's really boring and I can't interrupt them because if I interrupt them it i bad. But seriously I am like starving right now I want to eat. And I can't really work when I'm hungry... Because it hurts my stomach and my brain.

OMG I AM ACTUALLY HUNGRY.

So anyway by tomorrow I have to make up 2 math homeworks, make up 2 english homeworks, do bio and get history notes so I can do my make up quiz.

UGH.

ok I interrupted them. now i can eat.

bye bye.

Quick observations from the NBA season

A lot of the young Centers are more promising now. Roy Hibbert has shown he can block some shots, Brook Lopez has showed signs of dominance, Marc Gasol is currently 2nd in rebounding.

Again Chris Bosh is off to a strong start.

Derrick Rose hasn't been able to back up his playoff performance.

Iverson is probably done.

Detroit is the best defensive team in the league.

Carmelo should see himself climbing up that top 10 players list.

Celtics, Heat, Magic, Suns and Lakers are the only teams to have lost 1 game... Suns and Heat don't really belong there so here's what they're doing well.

Suns
Nash seems motivated.
Amare is back.
Grant Hill is a rebounding machine.
Channing Frye fits the system well.

Heat
Dwyane Wade is good
JO isn't sucking as much dick as last season.
Q-Rich!?

Rookies
Chase Budinger is a total steal.
The Point Guards are strong. Evans, Flynn, Jennings, Curry are all showing promise and Ty Lawson is making the most of his minutes.
Dejuan Blair is a total steal.

A quick race to MVP right now...

1. Kobe Bryant (5-1)
2. Steve Nash (6-1)
3. Dwight Howard (5-1)
4. Carmelo Anthony (5-2)
5. Dwyane Wade (5-1)
6. LeBron James (4-3)
7. Paul Pierce (7-1)
8. Dirk Nowitzki (4-2)
9. Chris Bosh (3-3)
10. Aaron Brooks (4-2)

Something like that.

Gives Me Hope?

It's weird. In a way, it's something to be proud of because of how the school got together but then, this should never have happened in the first place. Our school gained some national attention and after getting it for something bad we got some nice attention. A friend of mine who lives in the same apartment as me got semi-featured in an L.A. Times article and it just seems really inspiring. What a wonderful school. kind of.

Comfort things

When I eat rice out of cup (like an actual cup) it makes me feel really warm and happy inside. I think it's because when I was in the hospital when I was 3 my mom and dad came to the hospital with cha siu rice and I couldn't finish like the whole take out box so they put it in my cup and I ate it out the cup and I guess it's just those things that make me happy.

100 Must Read Books

Sometimes when people are having a conversation they'll be like "Oh yea! It's just like Lord of the Flies!!" and I will know what they are talking about but sometimes they will be like "Oh yea!! It's just like Animal Farm!" and I will have no idea what they are talking about.

Because I need to prepare myself for all of life's situations, I have found a list of 'must read books'. I feel this list I found is more manageable than a 1001 book list so I found this '100 Must Read Books: The Essential Man's Library' because I am a real man.

The link can be found here.

http://artofmanliness.com/2008/05/14/100-must-read-books-the-essential-mans-library/

First up is

The Great Gatsby

I'm gonna go to the school library and check it out. Whopee.

If you didn't know

2 days ago a 4th person in my school committed suicide. (A 3rd person did it at the beginning of the year but I didn't post that I think. There was also another attempt).

Don't want to go too deep into this but yea it's a weird world out there.

Fun day

Even though I should be doing my homework, today was such a fun and eventful day that I thought I should blog about it.

So today I woke up semi late and I quickly microwaved my fried rice and packed it back in the takeout box and I ran all the way to the far side of school in time for the PSAT.

I think I did ok on it. But that's the boring part. When I got out I saw some really weird disgusting bugs that kept flying around everywhere. Jon (I'm just going to say all these names. This blog is kinda for me so if you don't know who these people are then too bad) downloaded a new app for iPhone/iTouch (no idea) which was a gun app and he started to shoot everyone with it.

After a while we all hung around the quad a bit and then I went to work on posters that I was supposed to work on a long long time ago with May and Alan (aka Gay Hsueh). We went to the gym of my apartment and after a while we got bored. May's hoodie smells really good but I feel like such a creeper for saying that.

I went back to the quad and we had just missed the Jamba Chug (stupid game anyway) and after a while me, Brian and Leon hopped into Henry's Porsche (DAMN) where we rolled down our windows and played African-American music with enhanced bass. After a while we started seeing a couple of Mehicanos so we rolled out windows up and pretended to be good kids.

When we got to Hong Kong Bistro we saw Paula who was there by herself (what a loner) and we went in.

I've actually eaten in Hong Kong Bistro once and I'd say it's pretty typical cha chan teng type food at a slightly higher price than what we're used to in Hong Kong. We literally ordered things that had pictures and I wanted to show off my Cantonese skills but Henry took over the spotlight and ordered "triangle, square, star, diamond" We ended up getting this creamy cheesy baked seafood rice, beef curry, beef cubes, singapore fried ho fun and baked pork chop rice (where other people were informed of the meaning of pork chop). The second group that came in Kevin's car came later where none of them shared and they had to eat a hugeass plate of food over and over and over again. Lance came along a little later. He rode on his bike because that's what he always does but this time he crashed and he got a hugeass nasty cut on his arm it was really nasty.

We managed to finish most of the food and Alan came over to eat a little more. When he got to the pork chop I said "Hey Alan do you like pork chops?" he looked up and he said "yea" and everyone laughed at him but he didn't get it.

We left and Lance got bandaged up by Paula with love and care and then the same 4 people + Paula rode on Henry's Porsche (DAMN) and we did the same thing as we rolled down the windows and blasted black music. This time I knew the lyrics a little better so I could say YEAA SMACK MY BITCH I SMACK YO BITCH U SMACK MY BITCH MY BITCH U BITCH along with the music.

After a while we saw a group of real black people then we were like SHIEETT and we quickly muted the music and rolled up the windows. The black guy was crossing the road and when we crossed our car he stopped for a bit and we were all hella scared and as soon as we turned we continued our blackness.

We got to Gunn where people were working on the floats and I wasn't really impressed. We got like the shape of it but it didn't look super cool.

I hung around for a bit and I got my stuff and then I waited for the bus to get to Water Polo.

The schedule for the game was all messed up and no one knew what was happening and we ended up getting in the game early. I got kicked out the fun bus that Coach Scott was driving because I believed in letting the guys that get minutes get their pick so I ended up going in Spencer's Mom's car which was a pretty sweet and comfortable ride.

When we got there we saw the Varsity girls destroy their opposition (15-0? 16-0?) and JV girls take one and JV boys lose (partly due to bad officiating).

When it was Varsity boys, the guys played kinda sloppy during the first 3 quarters (also partly due to bad officiating) and Coach Scott lost his cool near the end of the 3rd. The official gave him a yellow card and he kept arguing and then he gave him a red card and he got ejected. The quarter ended with us down 4 (I think). Good thing we had 2 coaches. When the quarter ended Coach Brian gave a little talk and we quickly let in another goal. Everyone on the bench was all sad and we kinda crumbled and we thought we lost the game but all of a sudden we are able to tie it up with about a minute left. Berenfeld scored a goal that pulled us within 1 and the game tier was a goal that I thought didn't go in. Spencer went into beast mode and didn't let anything in.

In overtime we completely destroyed the opposition. 4 goals in the first half of overtime and then they scored 1 goal in the second half of overtime but we sealed the deal with another goal. Great comeback and just a great great moment. I was watching from the bench (aka the Gentleman's club) the whole time but it was just a great moment. Coaches told us about the poor performance the first 3 quarters but they said that we should be very proud of that comeback.

It's always weird how people say we when they are associated with a team even if they weren't actually part of it.

But awesome day. Now to wrap it up with some studying.

crazy chinese woman goes berserk on a black woman on the SF muni in chinatown

This is crazier than Bus Uncle or anything weird. So after trying to listen to this woman's heavily accented and super fast and pissed off Cantonese what I got is that the black woman was hogging up a space so the chinese woman got super pissed. She keeps saying FAK YEW!!! FAK YEWW!!! YEW ARE STEWPIAT!!! and eventually the black woman is like "SAY IT AGAAAAIN!!"

so the chinese woman is like

FAAKKK YEWW!!!!

The black woman punches her in the face then the chinese woman goes insane and starts flailing her arms at her then she gets the black woman in a good position then keeps punching the black woman's head.

The bus full of chinese people cheer her on including an overenthusiastic man who says things like

"HIT HER" (he says this like a kazillion times)
"DON'T BE SCARED HIT HER"
"HIT HER UNTIL SHE'S SCARED"
And when the lone civilized chinese person tells the black woman to get off again he quickly shouts another

"HIT HER"

Crazy ass fight. I just find it kinda depressing because it seems like everytime there is a crazy asian breaking out (Bus Uncle, weird couple in the MTR, the lady who missed a flight and now this) the asian ALWAYS seems to speak cantonese.

Bad image to us cantonese speaking folks.

Stop interrupting my site.

FUCK U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED 0N A KITTEN.

Mmm yummy subway

Subway is really good. For $5 people think it's a good deal but if you convert $5 it's like 39 dollars Hong Kong (and I haven't included tax) and at that price you can get a pretty sweet meal like a baked pork chop rice with drinks and stuff at a Hong Kong fast food place.

But then Subway is probably healthier. Usually I get a meaty meatball marinara or spicy italian or someting but today I got the oven roasted chicken breast and it is DELISH.

The consistency of the chicken is like...

Chicken McNuggets.

Which means I should be scared, but it's so good...

Junior Year

I am going to begin my 2nd year of high school in America. (I transferred for Sophomore year) and I don't know what to expect. A lot of people say junior year is the hardest year.

Anyway here are a list of things that I want to do during my junior year.

Get all As (whopee).
Get a job type of thing.
Get my driver's license.
Drive.
Do lots of good productive stuff for the community.
Do Water Polo.
Do varsity swimming.

wOW FUCK I NEED TO FINISH MY AP BIO HOMEWORK

Nicholas 姚樂生 says:

*me

ok.

I will write up the whole story of how we became friends and some of our beautiful memories together. The beginning is kind of off topic but I thought it would be fun to write about some of the stuff since it is good.

One day when I was 5 or 6 years old Star Wars Episode I came out. Back then my favorite color was red and I always got the red stuff because it was cool. But one day my friend called Philip told me that the red lightsaber was for the bad guy and I felt really sad but I still liked the color red. I watched the movie and I was like ugh so lame and I almost fell asleep. Basically all I remember is Qui gon Jinn and Obiwan Kenobi were fighting Darth Maul and there was this little Jar Jar Binks guy and like there was this Podracing scene where Anakin Skywalker wins the race. Anyway Darth Maul dies and his lightsaber is so much better than the others ones because a) it was red B) it was 2 lightsabers combined into 1 lightsaber.

Anyway I think Qui Gon Jin dies and then Obiwan is like no crap noo!!! and then later he finds himself hanging on the edge and he's all like nooo I am fucked! And all of a sudden he gets a burst of energy and like jumps up and grabs the green lightsaber and sticks it in Darth Maul's gut and then Darth Maul falls to his death.

Anyway that was really stupid but that's my memory of Star Wars. So anyway there's all this Star Wars hype and the my mom buys me some Star Wars Darth Maul boardies and it's basically like 1 leg is black and 1 leg is red and on one of them Darth Maul's face is it on looking all scary.

Then I take swimming classes with the infamous Yang and I took it and like a lot of people I took it with left because he was such a meanie. The little kids always swam on the 1 meter side and one day we had to swim across the pool across the evil 1.6 meters side (OMG) and go to the other side. I was so brave and I swam across and other people ran off like little chickens.

So after a while Yang stopped teaching lessons where I first learned them (Villa Athena) and he went to coach at Symphony Bay (sounds so much nicer). Initially I still lived in Villa Athena and I had to take a bus to go to Symphony Bay like every other day to go swim. One time on the minibus TV there were these Japanese people playing strip stone paper scissors/roshambo (true story) and I got so excited watching it but the guys side kept losing (damn it).

Anyway so I've been learning swimming with this Yang coach guy for a while and then one day this little tanned guy comes in and he's pretty fast. I was like oh who does this guy think he is he thinks he's soooooo cool. I kinda remember that image very clearly because he was swimming ont he other side of the pool.

Anyway one day I saw that little tanned boy at school (SJS) and he was like in the middle of the playground looking up at the building and he was smiling and I thought to myself 'oh it's the little tanned boy' and I ignored him.

So one thing led to another (actually I have no idea) and after a while we would talk to each other after swimming everyday. If you haven't figured out who the little tanned boy was it is NICHOLAS YIU. hi.

We used to be like friendly rivals and whenever we had to do time trials the coach would always make us race each other. Whenever it was the time trial we got to rest for like the whole lesson so me and nick will sit in our spot (closest big pool loungey chair along the long side of the pool) and we will meditate and focus our energy into our swim. It was kind of ridiculous but they were good times. I used to be better than Nick. I swam like 40 seconds for 50 freestyle and he was like 42 ahahaha what a loser.

One day nick bought a new swimsuit that was navy in the front which is very normal but the back was a bright shade of blue and it was stripey. One day when we were swimming Nick was about to overtake me and I was looking at nick and when nick turned to breath I saw his bright blue butt and I started laughing really hard because I found it very amusing that his lower body kept changing colors.

After a while we started to slack off a bit and Bernice started being a little b and started to swim faster. Now in this club there was like 1 other person that was me and nick's age and was good at swimming and his name is Wong Tak Sing (Dickson I think) and one day while we were swimming the coach yelled at us 3 and said oh if you let Bernice overtake any of you you guys have to stay and swim 5000 freestyle after class.

At this point all 3 of us were like HOLY SHIT. So in the beginning we just swam one after the other but after a while it seemed kind of sad so we decided that we should leave a brother behind and we did the smartest thing ever in the history of lap swimming which was to build a human wall (we didnt' even talk this over it just kinda happened and we were like hey holy shit it works). But for lap swimming building a human wall 3 people across was a really stupid thing to do because it just kinda obstructed the whole lane and people kept bumping into us when they were coming back but we were like fuck it we need to take one for the team.

Anyway so for that whole set 3 guys swam in a line together as Bernice kept jabbing our feet with her hands (to this day Bernice claims that I kept kicking her hands but this was not true... a) I remember Bernice kept jabbing her hands into our feet very clearly because she was being hostile and wanted us to suffer and swim 5000 freestyle and also b) i hardly kick my feet when i swim).

Oh and one day Nick was being very lazy and then the coach made him lead the young guys which turned out to benefit him because he was relied on to finish first while i trailed behind the fast guys where I would always get lapped. One day Nick just started getting a lot faster than me then after a while I quit because I was being a lazy fatso.

But perhaps the best parts of me knowing nick weren't during swimming but more after swimming. After a while we got to know the people that we swam with better and some of the people we got along with the most were John, Tim, and Paul Li. (Tim and Paul were twins and they were collectively known as Timpaul).

John was 2 years older than us and he would always tell us these cool stories and we always thought he was so cool and he would talk about how much of a pimp he was (later on I found out that he wasn't as cool as he claimed to be).

I think me and Nick started getting closer during P5 and we would talk about our daily struggles as year 10 kids. so cute. And a lot of other stupid stuff happened but I'll write about it in part 2.

I dedicate this shit to Jamie.

DAMN IT

Time to learn something. When I drink milk in the morning (probably sometime before 9AM) I will have a hugeass poopie in a matter of hours. Through out most of Years 7, 8 and 9, I drank milk every morning and I would take a massive dump some time in a morning class. After a while teachers thought I was doig something else like taking drugs or texting so eventually I had to hold my poopie for like half an hour in order to make a poopie in the break.

Sometimes that stomachache would hurt REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD but I have to hold it in order to not be embarrassed. Finally in Year 10 I started to realize that milk was making me have those crazy poops in the morning so I cut down on the milk but sometimes if I was adventurous and I ate toast with cheese or butter only to make another poopie at school.

So I am lactose intolerant in the morning. I chug gallons of milk in the afternoon and be fine. It's weird.

I wish I had something to blog about.

I have many weird random hobbies that I don't feel comfortable blogging about on my regular blog that I am trying to appeal to a general audience. Sadly I lack the charm of some celeb and no one really cares about my life. I do not get any insider information about particularly interesting people and I am not fucking Perez Hilton.

So I will continue to blog about random things.

Anyway I watched Hangover (technically) yesterday. It was another one of those super crazy fun amazing incredible insane in the brain mega epic movies and it was pretty funny but I'm scared that that genre of movies are gonna get old.

I really wished I knew what to blog about. Things that are happening in my life right now. I am in need of original content and not typical teen concerns such as smoking, drugs, sex, and a a a a a alcohol.

how boring.

The Kevin Quest

I know 2 Kevins in Hong Kong and 2 Kevins in America and also my cousin. It seems like since Kevin is such a common name the universal Kevin nickname is K*, with the * being substituted with the first letter of the Kevin's last name. Heck I even know 2 Kevins in the NBA and they are called KG (Garnett) and KD (Durant). I notice this also happens with the John/Jon/Jonathans of the world but since there seem to be a lot of other names that begin with J it's not as common.

So I am going to begin my quest to know at least 26 different Kevins each with a different last name first letter and I will use this post to keep progress.

New direction

I have decided I am going to write about things that will enlighten people and make them smarter. I have decided that a good writer is a writer who makes the reader go 'damn' after they have finished reading whatever the writer has wroten. Ok i know it is written but I thought it would be funny to say wroten.

Ladies and gentlemen, proper cereal eating etiquette.

Imagine you are eating a bowl of cereal (and you are not allergic to dairy/wheats/nuts all that stuff)

You take out a bowl and a spoon, you take your cereal, and you take the milk.

What do you do?

a - pour the cereal in the bowl first
b - pour the milk in the bowl first

Let's evaluate these choices. Because the cereal is what actually makes you full and is what you are actually eating you need to be able to know and control how much you are actually eating. If you pour the milk first and then you pour the cereal it will seem to fill up faster that it actually is and also you'll have a bunch of cereal floating on the top.

Also by putting the cereal in the bowl first and adding milk second it allows you to cap the milk and then put it in the fridge in one smooth motion.

However that creates a dilemma because in the time you use to bring that carton/bottle of milk back to the fridge your cereal will be sitting in that bowl being soggy.

Post your thoughts.

I'm going to use labels. Maybe it will help this blog be on the internets.

the blog game

I have no idea what I want to do with this blog. I can continue to post the occasional basketball post and have no one read it or sound like a little teen pussy who hates life or rants about everything in the world.

I am not a celebrity so no one will want to stalk me.

If you read my blog you can comment. Even if I don't know you that well and you think it might be awkward because I will think you are cool for leaving behind a comment.

Boring.

Super badass NBA season coming up.

The 4 best players of this decade

Shaq, KG, Duncan, Kobe.

The 4 best teams headed into next season

Cavs, Celtics, Spurs, Lakers

2 from each conference.

Even the conference Finals will make some really interesting match ups. Lakers/Spurs have a 'who was the better franchise since Jordan' type of match up and LeBron/Celtics has been pretty well documented since the Celtics acquired their Big 3.

I think if the 4 teams I mentioned above all make the Conference Finals, I'd be happy with any NBA Finals situation.

Cavs VS Lakers - We get the Kobe/LeBron that was supposed to happen. Throw in some Phil Jackson/Kobe Bryant/Shaquille O'Neal drama and that's good television. If LeBron wins it'll be a nice 'passing of the torch' type of thing to end the decade.

Cavs VS Spurs - Shaq and Duncan tied at 4 rings each will settle who the more dominant big man was this generation. LeBron gets a chance to revenge that embarrassing sweep a couple of years back.

Celtics VS Lakers - A finals rematch, more Celtics VS Lakers to help fuel the rivalry. Settles all the 'what ifs' from the Lakers fans that complained that Bynum wasn't there.

Celtics VS Spurs - The Big Fundamental and the Big Ticket, the 2 most talented Power Forwards of this generation get to duke it out.

Why can't the season start!!?!?!?

i hate the lakers

Lakers suck

Kobe Bryant has such a big ego he always chokes on jumpshots and when he does he just says there was a foul and he always like fucks up the offense and he always thinks he's such a good playmaker but he never passes to his teammates especially in crunchtime and then off the court he thinks he's all cool and casual with everyone.

Pau Gasol is ugly and annoying. His face his is ugly his hair is ugly his beard is ugly his jumpshot is ugly when he complains to officials he's ugly and he thinks he is the best jumpshooter in the world but he looks like a fucking butthole when he shoots jumpshots even his brother is fucking ugly like wtf were his parents thinking hey let's give birth to some spaniards with hugeass stupid hair!!!

Lamar Odom is such a little pussy and he can't play basketball and he always screams like a little girl when he grabs rebounds and makes lay ups even if he is wide open he screams like a little bitch like his dad is shoving it up his butthole he is so shit at basketball even though he has all the tools to be a good basketball player.

Andrew Bynum is the biggest pussy in the world he is so big but so useless and he always gets injured and he is like a little pussy even his coach makes fun of him and he cries like the big baby davis.

Derek Fisher is so old and ugly and annoying his jumpshot is so stupid and he always misses jump shots except for Game 4 and he gets so much credit for being a vet but he actually sucks dick and he can't post up Aaron Brooks and he is like such a n00b he misses lay ups all the time.

Trevor Ariza is so annoying he's so athletic but he sucks just cause he can hit a couple of 3s and he has long arms and he can steal some balls oh big deal he can't do shit he just feeds off good players.

Sasha Vujacic is ok but his hair is getting so fucking annoying like all wavy and shit like a girl i bet he gets it in the butthole a lot in the team showers cause he looks like a girl he needs to like get his parts fixed or switch to like some new energy source cause his machine is not working.

Luke Walton looks like such a silly white boy and he can't really do anything he's kinda like Mr. Turner trying to play basketball he's stupid and like he doesn't do anything good he's just there and he's so useless and shitty and white his dad is better than him at basketball what a loser.

Jordan Farmar is such a stupid little Jew with big ears like he is a monkey or osme shit and he can't really ball or do anything he sucks dick he can't really shoot or pass or anything he just like reads the torah or some shit he should wear one of those little jew caps on his head when he plays fucking eat kosher food.

Josh Powell is so stupid and useless like the beginning of the season I thought he was Ronny Turiaf but he isn't he thinks he's so good at shooting jumpshots but he isn't he's sucky and his hair looks like a pile of shit who the hell is he trying to be he looks like a fucking dinosaur.

DJ Mbenga looks like a fucking monkey no joke his face is so disproportional for a human and he can't really do something just because you're African and you're a funny name doesn't mean you are a good shotblocker cause otherwise my friend Tapiwanashe Mazinyi would be a monster shot blocker but he isn't.

Shannon Brown is so useless just because he can hit a couple of 3s and dunk and looks a little bit like Chris Brown he is trash and only trash he is shit and he should go play with Rihanna.

Adam Morrison is like the biggest bust in the world he's like michael jackson he looks like some fucking child molester he was pretty good in college but now he sucks cause he spends all his time feeling up the ball boys instead of working on his game he can't get minutes over fucking shannon brown or mbenga or josh powell he sucks so much dick luke walton is better than him.

Sun Yue is quite good repping all the asians but he can't do shit on the lakers like jews get minutes over him he is tall but he can't really do shit for a point guad but he can't play 2 guard or anything cause he is like so shit in the NBA all he does is sit on the bench and be like oh hao qiu to everyone yea fucking n00b

And Phil Jackson thinks he is so fashionable with his little funny glasses and he thinks he's so cool with hsi special chair and then he like doesn't play his good players when he needs to so he thinks he is so damn cool that way and he thinks is hte best coach in the world hello if i had michael jordan on my team i would have a pretty kickass team as well gosh so stupid.

make that 3.

someone else tried to commit suicide tonight. fortunately he was stopped.

2 suicides 1 month

Last night another person in my school committed suicide... The same train track.

I'm just confused.

New thing i'm trying out.

I'm working on making a few NBA related t-shirts and I've decided to start with Turkoglu. Quite a bit of progress from my initial one cause people kept telling me it looked like Aaron Brooks.

15 years of age - The year everything changed.

Perhaps the most memorable years of my life was when I was 3 years old when I started remembering things and probably this year. I can't really associate stuff I've done to a certain age because it all just seems to be a blur. When I was 3 I would watch countless episodes of Power Rangers, I would hit my dad and be mean to my grandparents. When I was 7? I don't remember a lot of things.

I guess it's easy for me to say this now since I'm currently 15 but 15 has been a year of change for me. It feels like I've been 15 forever.

This blog has also been awesome since it has kept a pretty good log on a year of one of the biggest changes in my life.

Let's take a look.

JUST BEFORE TURNING 15 - (this counts because it's cool)

First kiss - Ok this is like a year before but it's worth documenting in case I forget when I grow up.

I see Jin. Probably like the first famous person that I've met up close and personal.

I start using Ubuntu which is my OS of choice. It also helps limit my computer game playing because I never bother to switch over to Windows.

My grandma dies. This is the first family member that I actually know who passed away.

I TURN 15.

Homemade iPhone.

My final ESF Swimming Gala - We win by 1 point. I start counting down the last 10 days of the school I've been in the last 10 years of my life.

I bomb $1000 on a pair of headphones.

First time I break an electronic that I own. The screen on my iPOd nano starts dying.

I buy Warcraft 3.

I get my first serious gaming console since my Playstation 1. (Wii doesn't count). Thanks for the PS3 guys.

I arrive in USA.

Experience being a loser/loner at High School.

Obama.

Experience the infamous American High School that we often see in TV Shows.

3 people I know growing up have parents that died/are dying.

I start contributing more to the society.

I get to watch Yao in action for the first time.

First Superbowl

First time I run away from cops.

Renewed love for sneakers.

First pair of Jordans arrive (Fire Red Vs)

I watch the 6OT classic between Syracuse and UCONN.

Start eating more cheeses.

First time I get straight As

Someone in my school commits suicide.

School shooting in my area.

Bomb threat in my very apartment.

It's been a long year. About a month left until I turn 16.

My future?

confused.

There's a bomb?

So here I am sitting in my school library on my blog. I'm locked out of my house because some stupid high school kid had some firecrackers in his house and then the cops went in and searched and they were like hmmmm these aren't just firecrackers...

OK the librarian is going to kick me out so bye I'll give the update later as long as I don't get bombed.

Cool Playoffs.

Saying hello to

Saying good bye to

The Detroit Pistons

New predictions

Since the Celtics will be without KG...

Celtics/Bulls - Celtics in 5

Celtics/Magic - Magic in 5

Magic/Cavs - Cavs in 6

Playoff Predictions

The seedings are finally in and here are my predictions.

First Round

EAST

Cleveland Cavaliers (1) VS Detroit Pistons (8)

Cavs in 5. The Pistons steal one at Cleveland (Game 2), wake up call for the Cavs and all the Kobe fans go insane but Cavs finish them off.

Boston Celtics (2) VS Chicago Bulls (7)

Celtics in 4. Celtics will pack the paint and Derrick Rose will die.

Orlando Magic (3) VS Philadelphia 76ers (6)

Magic in 4. Dwight Howard will average about 6 blocks a game in this series because no one in Philly can shoot but Dwight Howard is a fucking beast in the paint.

Atlanta Hawks (4) VS Miami Heat (5)

Heat in 6. Wade averages near a triple double in this series.

WEST

Los Angeles Lakers (1) VS Utah Jazz (8)

Lakers in 5. Jazz are still a pretty good team but their record has been hurt by their recent suckage and also a bunch of injuries so they're no typical 8th seed. The Lakers wins should be rather close wins that are around 10 points.

Denver Nuggets (2) VS New Orleans Hornets (7)

Hornets in 7. Interesting match up. Chris Paul vs Chauncey Billups will be quite nice to see. Chris Paul will put up godly numbers. X Factor is J.R. Smith.

San Antonio Spurs (3) VS Dallas Mavericks (6)

Spurs in 5. The 'don't write off the Spurs' thing begins. A few smartasses pop up and say 'oh I've been saying all season long, don't write off the Spurs!!'

Portland Trail Blazers (4) VS Houston Rockets (5)

Rockets in 6. Rockets should have swept the season series but Roy hit that crazy 3. Greg Oden slows down Yao effectively before picking up his 5th foul in 3 minutes of action. This will be an interesting series!

Second Round

EAST

Cleveland Cavaliers (1) VS Miami Heat (4)

Cavs in 5. Wade puts up subpar shooting numbers but attempts like 20 free throws each game.

Boston Celtics (2) VS Orlando Magic (3)

Celtics in 7. Will probably be one of the best series. Depends on how KG's doing but Celtics should be able to contain Dwight Howard effectively and should also be able to close out on those open shooters.

WEST

Los Angeles Lakers (1) VS Houston Rockets (5)

Lakers in 5. I wish things would be different but this Laker team just fucking rapes the Rockets. Rockets will play a good 3 quarters of basketball for the whole series but the Lakers will win somehow.

New Orleans Hornets (7) VS San Antonio Spurs (3)

Spurs in 7. Because Spurs are good even without Ginobili and you shouldn't write them off. Roger Mason hits 3 3s in the 4th quarter of Game 7.

Conference Finals

EAST

Cleveland Cavaliers (1) VS Boston Celtics (2)

Cavs in 6. Witness.

WEST

Los Angeles Lakers (1) VS San Antonio Spurs (3)

Lakers in 6. Bynum + Gasol is too much to handle for Duncan.

THE FINALS


Lakers win because they're fucking stacked.

2008-2009 NBA Awards Predictions

I wish I made a set of predictions before the season began so I can compare... But I didn't so obviously I can't compare. duh.

Alright

Most Valuable Player - LeBron James
Best record in East, possibly the league, best PER in the league. He's locked it up.

Rookie of the Year - Derrick Rose
He has the stats... currently at 16/17 PPG and 6 APG, leading the Bulls to the playoffs... Pretty strong case for ROY.

Defensive Player of the Year - Dwight Howard
Close to 14 rebounds and 3 blocks a game and he anchors one of the best defensive teams in the league. I'd like to see LeBron win it though, but this has always been more of a statistical award.

Sixth Man of the Year - J.R. Smith
He's been a beast for me on my fantasy team. I think Jason Terry is getting far too many minutes to be considered a 6th man.

Most Improved Player - Devin Harris
I'd like to say Jameer Nelson but like half the season doesn't help his cause. Devin Harris has been in consideration since the beginning of the season.

Coach Of The Year - Mike Brown
Best record in the East. Cavs record improved a considerable amount this season.

Executive Of The Year - Daryl Morey
Landed Artest, big balls trading Rafer for Lowry, signing Von Wafer. Good stuff.

All-NBA First Team

G - Dwyane Wade
G - Kobe Bryant
F - LeBron James
F - Tim Duncan
C - Dwight Howard

Wade gets the nod over Paul because of his amazing season. Duncan makes it next to LeBron cause KG missed a bit of the season and doesn't have the most spectacular statline.

All-NBA Second Team

G - Chris Paul
G - Chauncey Billups
F - Carmelo Anthony
F - Kevin Garnett
C - Yao Ming

Chauncey and Melo make it for helping the Nuggets nab the 2nd seed in the West.

All-NBA Third Team

G - Deron Williams
G - Brandon Roy
F - Dirk Nowitzki
F - Pau Gasol
C - Shaquille O'Neal

And what's left. Sucks Joe Johnson couldn't make a team.

All-Defensive First Team

G - Dwyane Wade
G - Kobe Bryant
F - LeBron James
F - Tim Duncan
C - Dwight Howard

Same as the All-NBA 1st team. Wade gets the nod for his 2 steal/2 block thing.

All-Defensive Second Team

G - Chris Paul
G - Chauncey Billups
F - Ron Artest
F - Kevin Garnett
C - Yao Ming

Replaced Melo with Artest. Paul's there for steals, Garnett is a by default thing.

All-Rookie First Team

G - Derrick Rose
G - OJ Mayo
F - Michael Beasley
F - Kevin Love
C - Brook Lopez

Where is Greg Oden? :X

All-Rookie Second Team

G - Russell Westbrook
G - Eric Gordon
G - Rudy Fernandez
F - Jason Thompson
C - Marc Gasol

I really wanted to put Anthony Morrow in there somewhere but this year has some pretty good rookies.

Cheese blog? Cheese blog!!

I found this piece of cheese in my fridge that we bought from this super awesome local supermarket called the Milk Pail which has all these cool cheeses and fresh cheap food.

I shall review cheeses from a normal person's point of view and not those cheese connoisseurs who will swallow salty strong tasting foul creamy chunks of food and call it a dessert cheese.

The first cheese that I willl review is called Champignon Mirabo Walnut Cheese.

From the a trusty cheese website called Cheese Supply...

Mirabo Walnut, a sophisticated soft ripened cheese, has been mastered by Kaserei Champignon of Bavaria, Germany. Its exclusive blossom shape, with find while mold, gives mirabo its unmistakable appearance. The pate of this cheese is a soft and creamy delight, and the finest crushed walnuts, speckled throughout, produce a wonderfully mild and nutty flavor.

There is no unmistakable appearance. It looks like a piece of brie with little chunks of walnuts (they could be anything though) in it. Yes it was creamy and the crushed walnuts didn't do shit to the flavor. If by 'wonderfully mild and nutty' you mean 'fucking salty' then yes. It had a wonderfully mild and nutty flavor.

After handling this cheese I went on to eat grapes which people seem to enjoy with their cheese, but the cheese stink was all over my fingers so when I ate grapes the grapes were stinky with cheese smell.

Late night blogging with Jordan

2:45AM as I start this blog post. I'm still kinda fucked from the jetlag and I'm not tired at all. I don't know what to write about. I kind of want to sleep. But I can't. I don't want to write over corny weird stuff because this is actually a public blog so I won't write weird stuff to make me look like I am so smart and deep and all the girls should like me because I'm so cool deep down.

FUCK YOU.

Ok.

I hate you all. I hate times like these (2:47AM in America) because most people in America are sleeping and then I don't know where all you Hong Kong people at.

I really miss Hong Kong. Being with my friends is muy bien.

DAMN IT I AM SO BORED BUT I CAN NOT SLEEP :(

6 Overtimes

Amazing game by Syracuse and UCONN earlier tonight. Devendorf had a 3 that would've won the game in regulation that was probably decided by less than 0.1 seconds, then 6 overtimes of basketball begin. I watched every minute of it and A game that should have ended like 1 hour and 15 minutes ago kept on going and I lost an hour of precious study time.

Awkwardest moment in my life.

Today I was going to swimming then I had to cross the road so when I was waiting for the light to change all of a sudden I heard these (female) orgasmic noises. I look behind me and I see nothing then these orgasmic noises continue as I sit there, one guy sitting on his bike waiting for the light to change while listening to female orgasmic noises. It was weird.

Things I don't like to eat

I like to eat a lot of things but I don't like...

Kiwi

Non-cow dairy products

Fans

boobies

school sucks

I am not mentally strong enough to stay away from the distractions of this world when I am doing homework.

But I'm nearly done anyway so it's not too bad.

So I'm sitting here in front of my computer working through homework and (not) looking forward to the history project, history exam, chemistry formal lab and math test, and english essay ahead of me.

Honestly, up until like last year I've never cared much about school. My mom would come home from school every year from the parent teacher meeting and she'll be like oh yea all your teachers were like "jordan is smart but he always does the bare minimum and doesn't put enough effort into his work." and my mom has been telling me to work hard every year. I work hard for about like a week or two then something cool happens and then I just stop.

But anyway I've finally reached the dreaded 'last 3 years' of high school that universities mainy look at and well, here I am. In Year 7, 8, 9, and 10, the most As I ever got was like 4 As. And that's because I had like 13 subjects or whatever and 2 of them were Mandarin and Music which were gimmes. But yea.

Now that I'm in those last 3 years that Universities seem to care a lot about, it's just really weird that everything I do right now could determine what my life will be like. Maybe if I'm good I could get into like a top 10 university (I actually got a letter from one) but that would be it. Maybe I'd get into the 10th best university in the world but I wouldn't be able to get into the top university because during these 3 years, I flunked a test or something and I couldn't get that grade that I wanted.

Weird.

Blog name change

Because I think it's funny.

I have a long weekend this weekend (5 days!!)

I'm beastly.

Sadly stupid swim coach decided to schedule practices on this beautiful long weekend.

Oh wellz.

Twitter

https://twitter.com/giordun

Now you can stalk me better. Twitter is like a website with only Facebook statuses. That way you don't have to feel bad by showing up on everybody's home page if you change your Facebook status every 5 minutes. Also you don't have to feel like a loner if your whole facebook page is filled up with the changes in your status.

How to save the economy and be charitable. AT THE SAME TIME.

Ok. So this is how it works.

Say you want to donate $1000 to a charity.

If you straight up gave $1000 to that charity, those poor African kids/dogs/people with cancer/whatever will be very thankful for your $1000 donation.

And that's perfectly fine.

BUT. If you want to help save the economy, this is what you do.

Go buy $1000 worth of goods that you know can be resold at a similar price point (Numbered Jordan shoes hold their value well as well as most luxury brand items... But as you go up it could get harder to sell because of trust issues.)

Go on ebay.com or some sort of listing thing where you can sell your stuff. Since you haven't used those $1000 worth of goods it should still hold its value quite well.

Get that $1000 and with that $1000 donate it to your charity of your choice.

What you have just done is

Give $1000 to the struggling economy.

Give $1000 worth of items to somebody who wanted those $1000 of items

Give $1000 to the charity of your choice.

So instead of just donating $1000 to a charity, you have just tripled your $1000 because you have given a $1000 value of stuff to 3 separate groups/individuals.

It's genius.

Top 100 moments in my life.

In no particular order. Just thought I should archive this. Maybe I'll rank them next time.

1. Hijacking the elevator one Halloween at William's place. All the kids got out the elevator to get candy and then we went in and closed the door. Some of the helpers looked confused. We pressed all the buttons and got off at the next floor and took for the stairs.

2. Sneaking out the back of a house when the police came over after some people complained about the noise. There was alcohol, shisha and underage drunk kids in the house. I climbed over this hugeass rock and tried to act as sober as I could. Asian flush gives a lot of things away.

Superbowl Live Blog

Pre Game (About 3:27) - Guys being introduced. This thing is like so hyped up there's all this stuff going on and all this coverage. NBA Finals are nothing like this. The coin toss is about to happen now.

Arizona Cardinals win the toss.

Oh whoop dee doo.

I took out some pre-game snacks and I already ate quite a lot and I'm kinda full already. boo.

3:33 - The Superbowl begins and yep it's a bunch of guys jumping on each other. Ben Rotheitahielhlafj with this pass to some number 86 guy and they're at the 30 something yard line? :S

3:36 - I think the Cardinals are getting cut up. The Steelers are at first and goal and it's like 3:30 into the game.

3:38 - The Steelers score.

3:41 - I think I just finished my first Superbowl commercial break. I don't know. They're pretty cool kinda. Oh they argued the call or whatever and now the Steelers don't score. It's 4th & Goal.

3:43 - Touchdown gets waived off but the Steelers convert the field goal so they're up 3-0. IT's kinda weird how you can just challenge calls. Rasheed Wallace should go play in the NFL.

3:57 - Damn Steelers are beasting. Ben Rohtiwrhltwehljs is a beast.

4:01 - My first quarter of my first superbowl is over. I fail to understand how Americans can all gather around and watch this together.

4:03 - New Vin Diesel movie!!

4:06 - Wow there were 2 kinda racy ads just now.

4:08 - Steelers touchdown. Seems a bit effortless.

4:21 - CARDINALS TOUCHDOWN!!!

5:07 - I was robbed of my computer rights. The Heroes commercial was kickass.

6:01 - The Superbowl is stupid and boring.

7:02 - The Superbowl is amazing. Huge touchdown with 35 seconds left. Santonio Holmes caught it in like the fucking corner of the endzone.

January 20th, 2009

Copy from a Facebook note.

To be honest I don't really have a clue about US Politics since I haven't been living here long and I haven't been paying much attention to the news and I don't really know what this whole 'change' thing is about (yea whatever haters.) but hopefully I'll understand this in like a couple of months. or years.

But today is a historic moment that my future kids will be looking at in their textbooks according to my history teacher (but apparently this is a history teacher technique to get people to pay attention) but yea. The first (half) African-American president. The 44th president of the United States.

So a breakdown of my whole January 20th so when my kids or whatevers ask me when I'm an adult "Wait you were alive when Barack Obama became President!?!??! What did you do!?!?!?" I have an answer.

So this was the beginning of the 2nd semester and I have just completed my first semester of school in America. I was going to set the alarm for 6:50 but I forgot about Daylight Saving or whatever so I woke up at 5:50 in the morning and I decided not to go back to sleep because I will be super tired when I wake up.

So I go to school slightly early because I needed to get my schedule. I got my schedule from a black(!) woman. Then I go to Contemporary World History (OMG) to watch the Inauguration. I see all these random white people walk out and then like Barack Obama's daughters walk out. Then when the camera went on to Barack Obama I just had that feeling where you would put your hands up when like Ray Allen or Marco Belinelli or Steve Novak is open for a 3 pointer. The bell rang and I went to Photo class and I continued watching the Inauguration. Apparently the elite judge or someone messed up when he said the oath but it was all good.

And then the ball rang again and that was it. I saw a truly historic moment!!!

Other details

Clothes - I was wearing my JAWNZ. A white T-shirt. A BLACK Puma hoody (I wasn't thinking when I put it on but ya). BLACK boxers (I didn't even know) and white chucks and some low (not ankle) champion socks.

Fuudz - I had leftover soup + noodle for breakfast. I bought lunch at school. I had salad. It was like chicken(!!!!) salad with shit loads of parmesan cheese and it had an ok Caesar salad dressing. When I got home I had this yummy creamy cheddar cheese with bacon and chive bits with delicious multi grain crackers. Then my sister comes home with half of a $5 foot long (meaty marinara) from subway and then for dinner I had vegetables and steak.

I watched an episode of Lost and Scrubs as well.

Music - I didn't really listen to anything but I guess one song that comes up to my mind is 2Pac's Changes. Time to go listen to it now.

Oh I just heard 'It's A New Day' by will.i.am pretty cool. TEEHEE

:D

What a day.

But Barack Obama better be a good president. He has more hype than SB Dunks.
